i have become...

A shopoholic. John is moving in to a house with some buddies this Wednesday, and I have become obsessed with finding decor and necessities for the sweet little house. I have only settled for substantially cheap things and decor that they would actually not mind. I'm totes not trying to be annoying dressing up their house when really, they could care less. John actually likes for it to look nice and has painted and made some tables and what not, so I don't feel quite as bad.

So far I've given them a lot of stuff I already had, bought some decorative pictures, a medium sized clock, shower curtain and liner, bath mat, and some towels. It's a work in progress!

Needless to say, this summer will be filled with yard sales and thrifting.

I am officially living vicariously through John and his new house.

Pictures to come

*Sigh*

This is where I'd like to go for my honeymoon one day.... If only...

(John, you better start auditioning for some big movies or something... Come on, get goin!)

highs and lows

I frequently do "highs and lows" with my Middle Schoolers, so I'd like to present some highs and lows to you from today (and it's only 2pm)

LOW

-I can't find my passport. After the Phills I put it by the filing cabinet, and left a note for my dad to file it away. Well, the note's still there, but the passport is no where to be found. AND if I can't find it, I have to get it expidited since it's kinda late to be getting one for July. Luckily, I finally found an open appointment for tomorrow after calling 10 different post offices. But, still pray that I find it some time tonight... Let's just say I had a slight panic attack today...

-I start summer school today... 3 hour class, 3 days a week... joy. Luckily it's an education course, so it will be interesting and useful.

HIGH

I am very excited about using this stationary. It came in a pack of 50. $7 at Ross Dress for Less. SCORE!

the home stretch

ONE MORE EXAM, AND THEN I AM OFFICIALLY DONE WITH UNDERGRAD.

OOOOHHH YEAH!

risen from the dead

I AM ALIVE BLOGGER WORLD!

And almost done with my semester! This past month has been a whirlwind, and I am very sorry I neglected you, ever so lonely blog.

Today I turned in my Senior Seminar paper... Glory to GOD in the highest. This is the paper I have literally been working on all semester (ok, maybe not those few weeks I should've been working on it, but wasn't). I gathered some 20 sources and eventually wrote a 20 page paper. Now, I can't really complain because for college, this really isn't that big of a deal, but this thing has been looming in the back of my head for the whole semester, and now it's out of my hands! PRAISE!

OK so now I am back in action blogger world!

I should...

probably start my senior seminar paper, but I have no idea where to start... It is a 15-20 pager on an obscure, hardly known 20th-century Scottish writer, Willa Muir. English major fail.

ahh vacation

A vacation or "Spring break" isn't a break unless you go out of town. I am officially having a real break! I got into New Jersey last night at approximately 7pm. Today we are going shopping and I am getting my hair cut! Sunday we are going into the CITY and seeing Jersey Boys on Broadway followed by an amazing Italian dinner in the city. I am sooo excited! A break is much needed. I'll post details and perhaps some pics later.
